And my reasoning for not switching to both is the same. “The programs I rely on for creation and collaboration aren’t there.”
For $50 and a bit of self-hosting effort, you can purchase a license for Foundry Virtual Table Top and get free lifetime updates. The community-built PF2e module is nigh fucking perfect. It's already incorporated the remaster rules.
There is still no functioning character sync/import for PF2 and Herolab though
Foundry has replaced herolab at my table since we switched from PF1 TO PF2
I do love how easy the PF2 Foundry Game Module is. Sadly my players all want to use Herolab even though its far more user unfriendly. In Foundry you just drag and drop your stuff from the compendium browser.
Would they maybe consider Pathbuilder? I do think the export to Foundry is a premium feature though.
Mhm thing is that we already bought a dozen or so herolab modules. Thus it's a bit in conflict, furthermore we share our one Foundry server across serveral game worlds and campaigns. So that's also not easily feasible.
But yeah pathbuilder is also a very nice tool, even better imho than herolab.
Is there a direct export to Foundry? I thought there was a Foundry module that imported Pathbuilder's JSON exports, but I don't remember seeing anything in Pathbuilder specifically for Foundry.
I don't use a VTT, though, so I admit I haven't dug too deeply.
There's a Foundry module that imports Pathbuilder's JSON exports, but Pathbuilder has a link to that module in it and steps on how to use it.
Just wondering what programs you're using. I'm always looking to improve my work flow.
